Hannah Semler, of Whole Crops Consulting, is CEO and Co-Founder of FarmDrop.us and co-host of What’s is American Food? Podcast, and has been a Betsy and Jesse Fink Family Foundation Fellow since 2018. From Spain to Maine, her work is driven by a deep understanding of community food systems, from gleaning and on farm food loss, to harvest-to-order e-commerce solutions. Her community-based efforts coexist alongside her work redesigning parts of our global food system to prevent and reduce waste, and create large-scale social impact. Her most recent body of work with Produce Rescue Without Borders put her MSc in International Food Business and Consumer Studies towards documenting the cross-border produce rescue work in Nogales, AZ.
